So, everyone knows what a software basically is and how the programers code it using different programming languages. As a software developer the important thing to create any software or any utility is to know its programming requirements. Before learning how softwares are created, we should know the basics right. Lets have a look at what actually does the term 'programming' means and when do we call a program as a software? . So, programming is basically the art of writing programs (
instructions) for creation of a software or for achieving the desired output. " A program is a set of instructions written to perform a particular task". Programming is actually a fun task if carried in proper syntax, else you will need hours to remove the so called '
bug' in the program. Moving ahead the software creation follows a proper cycle called as
SDLC (
Software Development Life Cycle). Question arises what does software development lifecycle means ?
What is SDLC ?
Ans : Software Development Life Cycle is a process used by the software industries to test, design and develope a software. Simply we could say the process of implementation of software. As we know a picture is a worth thousand words. An important thing to remember is that a software development cycle is not only limited to design and testing. It requires a proper planning and requirement analysis.
So have a look at a picture below to know what actually does SDLC works.

In the next tech post we will see the SDLC stages and concepts in short. Till then search over the programming terms and the basics required for your software creation.
